Got to hand it to Yukari, she really is context-dependent! I imagine there's a lot of emotions going through her head, but I like how it's subtly implied she's jealous.
Also, lore:
The Bracelet's akin to a glitch as a 'sterile grudge' which doesn't grow or shrink, which is strange, because a curse should either get stronger or weaker over time. The creator intended for this to be a way to assail seemingly-invulnerable Youkai, which it can do, but principally what he actually created was a 'universal reference' through which you can see a consistent world. The problem is that the real world isn't actually consistent, both magic and science have unexplainable phenomenon beyond anyone's comprehension and subordinating that wonder completely to rationality makes the world look accused.
'Absolute Deal' operates on a very similar principle, making trade into a rationale and consistent practice with no room for breaches of contract and also no need for trust or tact, so Goro was already primed to understand the Bracelet's mechanisms. The reason it's been stuck on Goro's wrist is that he's been made aware of the 'consistent world' and is cursed and damned with that knowledge. In that sense, Yukari already 'saved' him by telling him not to think of things so strictly and inadvertently giving him completely irrational children.
So I'd say take the right arm and make the implication explicit. Sending them to the Myouren's makes sense as well, but I'd just like to make sure they're there to witness Yukari dying/getting sealed in the end, they made a promise to do so Afterall.
